Welcome to FlyerTalk! Unless you continued East from SIN that wasn't a RTW reward. And, yes, DL raised their redemption prices on RTW rewards in the past year.

Is there a RTW calculator which would allow me to create a dummy itinerary with flight numbers, connections etc which I could use to start the phone/fax conversation?
Star Alliance's is very helpful but I've not found one for SkyTeam, including searching on FT.
Just having flight numbers isn't all that useful for a reward redemption since odds are that reward seats won't be available. Use nwa.com's reward search to find actual award availability and then call those flights in.
